I have to reinstall my home network but the Network
connection wizard fails. When I run the troubleshooting
protocols and scan the system, a number of steps fail
with this error. I have followed the troubleshooting
instructions, Windows explorer, right click my computer,
manage, services and applications, WMI. Cick stop, delete
items in folder \system32\web\repository. Restart
computer.

Still no go.

Any ideas, short of reinstalling WIN XP.

Thanks,

Larrie

In Services, is the WMI service set to Automatic? If it is Disabled, it
is the problem.
